The stairwell was very quiet. At this time, no one passed by outside.
Su Peizhen's words were undoubtedly like a needle stabbing into Ling Jing's chest. It was so uncomfortable, really uncomfortable.
"No." Ling Jing shook his head, his expression full of bitterness. "I, I'm serious this time. Believe me. "
It wasn't a game, not a show, not a trick.
It was him who understood his sincerity and knew that he had been ridiculously wrong. He just wanted her.
"Serious? I don't know how much Young Master Ling's seriousness is worth. Tell me, although I'm not short of money. But I'm really curious. How much can a prisoner like me be worth in Young Master Ling's eyes? This time, how much money does Young Master Ling plan to use to keep me? "
Words could sometimes turn into sharp blades. Every word Su Peizhen said now was like a knife, stabbing Ling Jing's heart again and again.
He suddenly realized that he, who had always thought that he was so strong that he could do anything and had no fear, also had times when he was afraid and didn't dare to face it.
"Don't say such things. I feel bad. Peizhen, I don't want to keep you this time, and I don't want to play with you. I really just want to start over with you. "
He spoke very, very slowly. Every word he spat out made him feel pain.
"Really?" Su Peizhen sneered, obviously not believing him.
Ling Jing was anxious, very anxious. He put his hands on her shoulders. Even if he couldn't see clearly, he wanted her to see the sincerity and seriousness in his eyes.
"Peizhen, it was all my fault before. I misunderstood you. I'm sorry. I just, I just … "
He was too proud. He was so proud that he couldn't tolerate the slightest bit of dislike from the woman he liked. He was so proud that he refused to give her a chance to explain so that he could pretend that he was the one who won.
But in reality, he lost completely.
"Wrong?" Su Peizhen felt his stiff body and pushed him away. "You are Young Master Ling, the young master of the Ling family. How could you be wrong? I'm the one who's wrong. I had eyes but failed to recognize you and treated you, Young Master Ling, as a pretty boy to keep. I didn't know what was good for me. I didn't realize your identity in time and didn't respect you. It's all my fault. What can you do wrong? You didn't do anything wrong at all. "
"Don't say anymore. Don't say it. "Ling Jing raised her voice uncontrollably." I beg you, don't say it. "
Su Peizhen did not say anything else. The atmosphere was eerily quiet.
Su Peizhen could still feel her heart beating out of control. She took a step to the side. Standing in front of the stairwell door, she placed her hand on the doorknob.
Turning around, she didn't intend to look at Ling Jing. She raised her head, and the scenes and fragments of their time together seemed to emerge in her mind again.
There was a sharp pain in her heart, but she suppressed the pain expressionlessly.
She pulled the door open and said in a calm voice, "Since Young Master Ling doesn't want to hear it, then I won't say it. After all, I'm just a convict. I won't stay here and be an eyesore to Young Master Ling. Young Master Ling wanted to play and do whatever he wanted to do. It was better to find someone else. I can't afford to accompany you. "
The door opened and closed, and her body disappeared outside the door. The bright light shone on her face. She squinted her eyes and raised her hand to block the light. At the same time, she suppressed the sourness in her eyes.
Then, her footsteps were firm, and she walked in the direction of the elevator without looking back.
The moment the door of the stairwell opened, there was light. Ling Jing could see Su Peizhen walk out expressionlessly. He stood in the shadows and only felt that the moment the light disappeared, his whole body also fell into darkness.
His heart sank.
… …
Su Peizhen entered the elevator, her legs a little weak. She sighed and realized that she was still more or less affected by Ling Jing. However, she tried her best to reduce the impact.
They hadn't seen each other for nearly half a year. She really didn't expect that Ling Jing would give her such a big gift as soon as he came.
Did he regret it? Start over?
Hehe. Did he think that life was like a mobile phone that would be turned off and restarted when it got stuck? Then everything would be fine again?
Moreover, she didn't believe Ling Jing's words at all.
Maybe it was a sudden impulse, or maybe he felt that he had lost face in front of Su Qingsang back then.
Adjusting her breathing, Su Peizhen smiled and threw those thoughts to the back of her mind.
Some things should be left in the past. They should be blown away by the wind and disappear forever.
..
Su Peizhen didn't expect that the things she thought had been blown away by the wind were not over.
The next day, when she went downstairs to go to work, she saw Ling Jing again.
She parked her car at the company yesterday. It wasn't far from the company, and she planned to walk to the company. It would be a good exercise.
Unexpectedly seeing Ling Jing in front of her, she paused for a moment, but only for a moment. Soon, she continued to walk forward as if nothing had happened.
Her steps were neither fast nor slow. She didn't want Ling Jing to think that his appearance could affect her mood.
It was very cold in Rong City in December. It hadn't snowed this year, but the wind made people feel cold.
Su Peizhen was wearing a light down jacket and a pair of Martin boots. She looked very casual. She didn't look like she was going to work, but more like she was going to the street.
She was afraid of the cold, so she put two sets of professional clothes in the office and changed into them when she got there. At this moment, she tightened the down jacket and directly passed by Ling Jing.
However, Ling Jing stood in front of her. If Su Peizhen had seen clearly last night, she would have found that Ling Jing was still wearing the clothes from yesterday.
He sat in the car for the whole night and smoked for the whole night.
At this moment, the smell of alcohol had dissipated, and his whole body was full of the smell of smoke. The smell made Su Peizhen frown and take a step back without thinking.
There was plenty of light during the day. All his expressions were exposed to the sun.
"What's the matter?"
Cold, alienated, indifferent. It was just like when they first met.
No, it made him feel worse than when they first met. At least when they first met, they hadn't reached this step yet.
"Peizhen, I, I'll send you to work."
Ling Jing's words made Su Peizhen raise her eyebrows. Looking at the anxiety in Ling Jing's eyes, she suddenly smiled.
"Young Master Ling wants to send me to work? Thank you, I can't afford it. "
"Peizhen, don't talk like that. I really feel bad."
"Bad?" Su Peizhen looked at the pain in his eyes, and the smile in her eyes deepened. "Young Master Ling, I admit that your acting is good. Your acting is really good. It's so good that you played me around. I really thank you for wronging a young master like you. For me, you spent so much effort pretending to be poor, pretending to be a gangster, and pretending to be pitiful. You acted like it was real. Thinking about it this way, I really didn't lose out. "
"No, I —"
"You acted so deeply before, so deeply that I believed it without a doubt. But Young Master Ling, this is a show. There will be a time when the curtain will fall. You've acted enough, and you've played enough. Can you be magnanimous and let me go? "
"No, I'm really not. I'm not acting this time. I'm serious. "
Perhaps it was acting at the beginning, but at the same time, he also got into character and unknowingly put himself in it.
"Su Peizhen, I'm serious. I really want to start over with you."
"Do you really want to start over with me? Or do you think that you haven't played enough with me, a prisoner through labor? "
"Don't say those three words again. I beg you. "
He couldn't listen to those three words. Hearing them made his heart ache.
"What three words? A prisoner through labor? "Su Peizhen spread her hands and looked indifferent." Am I wrong? That's the truth. I'm a prisoner through labor. Young Master Ling said that. I'm just repeating your words. "
"Su Peizhen, it's all my fault. Everything, it's all my fault."
Ling Jing stepped forward and held her hand. He closed his eyes. He really couldn't stand Su Peizhen's attitude.
"I didn't do it on purpose. I was just too angry at that time. "
"You know. That Huo Yifan, he sent me some photos. I, I saw it at the time, and I went crazy with anger. I thought those photos were real. Besides, you guys used to be good. I believed it. "
Su Peizhen stood there and listened to him continue with a cold face. Her expression was indifferent, and she looked unmoved.
Ling Jing really regretted it. He thought of Su Peizhen saying that he had no brain yesterday.
It wasn't that he didn't have a brain. It was just that at that moment, anger and anger took over his rationality, plus the embarrassment of being discovered by her.
He didn't know how to explain his identity, but he just had to receive those photos. The two things were mixed together, so he lost his rationality for a moment.
"I was wrong. I regret it. I shouldn't have done that. I shouldn't have not given you a chance to explain. I shouldn't have jumped to a conclusion without asking anything. I'm sorry. Please forgive me. "
The winter sun slowly rose and shone on her body, but there was no warmth at all.
Her fingertips were slightly cold. Ling Jing held her hand very tightly, as if this could give him some warmth.
"Are you done?"
There were some things that Su Peizhen knew yesterday.
Indeed, the person who sent the photos was Huo Yifan, and it had nothing to do with Ling Jing. Seeing those photos made Ling Jing angry. In the end, it wasn't Huo Yifan who said those hurtful words.
But so what?
Su Peizhen took a step forward and didn't rush to withdraw her hand. She just stared at Ling Jing.
"You said that you were angry because you saw Huo Yifan's photo?"
"Yes –"
"But before that?" Su Peizhen's voice was very cold, and her expression was even colder. "Before that, who were you?"
"…"
"Ling Jing. Wasn't it? Before that, your identity was already the young master of the Ling family. Wasn't it? "
"I, I was –"
"You were injured at that time, and I brought you back. Then, by accident, I thought of you as a hooligan, a gigolo, and I said I wanted to keep you. You could be angry, you could leave, or you could refuse. Right? "
"… Yes." Ling Jing couldn't defend himself. It was indeed like that. He could refuse, or he could leave.
"You didn't refuse. You agreed. On the surface, you signed an agreement with me and said that I would keep you for half a year. In fact, at that time, you felt uncomfortable and unwilling. Right? "
"You had a chance to explain the situation. As long as you told me your identity, I promised that I would give up the idea. But you didn't. Not only did you not, but you also followed my wishes and acted with me. "
"You played the role of a gigolo, a hooligan to perfection. In the end, you made me believe that you were a hooligan with nothing. You were a gigolo who relied on me to keep you, right? Right? "
"And then? The anger in your heart didn't dissipate. Your unwillingness was still there. You just hid it. You decided to Zhou Xuan, to hide your identity and stay by my side. At that time, you should have started planning, right? "
The series of questions made Ling Jing's voice stuck in his throat. There were many things he couldn't say. He could only stare at her blankly. "Peizhen, I …"
"Let me finish. In fact, at that time, you started thinking about taking revenge on me. Didn't you? "
Ling Jing couldn't refute that. What she said was the truth.
"I noticed that I might have a different feeling for you. Lin Feixing appeared. He was pursuing me. My mother wanted me to get married, so I decided to stop our relationship. At that time, I completely angered you. On the surface, you seemed to agree. But in fact, you were thinking about how to make me fall in love with you. In the end, you could declare victory in front of me and dump me. "
"Peizhen, I didn't. I only thought that way at first. Then …"
"Then, you appeared in front of me. Not only did you act like a hooligan and pretend to be pitiful, but you also hurt yourself on purpose. In order to convince me, he even bought that bungalow. Everything was just a ruse. And you were the one who set it up. I'm the one who fell into your trap, the one who fell into your trap. "
"No, it's not exactly like that. I was just …" She was mad.
"You were just unwilling. You were just angry. You just wanted me to submit to you. And you got it later. I believed in you. I chose you. You succeeded. You also won.
After you won, you felt that you were tired of playing the game and wanted to end it. So, after receiving those photos, you just had an excuse, a reason. Those photos successfully made you decide to get rid of me and complete your original plan to take revenge on me, didn't they? "
The series of words were sharp and direct.
Who was Su Peizhen? She had been with Su Chenghui in the business world since she was a child. She had her own vision and vision.
That's right, Ling Jing said it seriously. It sounded as if they really didn't trust each other enough.
But what was the truth?
"Ling Jing, from the beginning to the end, whether you were sincere or not, your feelings for me were built on deception. An encounter that started with deception, a relationship that was decided to be based on revenge from the beginning. Does it have anything to do with misunderstanding? "
Her aura was too fierce, her words too sharp and direct, and every word she said was to the point.
Ling Jing was speechless. Standing there for a long time, she couldn't think of anything to refute.
"I …"
Su Peizhen finally pulled her hand back. Looking at some stubble on Ling Jing's chin, she took a step back.
